I Want to Know if and What Size I Should Go to Acheive a Full C? (photo)

Hi, I am 5'7 and weigh 125lbs. I am fit and I had little to no breast tissue to start off with. We decided on a 375 cc moderate plus silicone implant. I expressed that I did not want much of a gap between my breasts and that I wanted them to be full. I am 4 days out and I feel that they are too small. Do you think I should have gone HP or a higher number mod plus implant? I still want them to look natural and I love the shape, I just want to be fuller. I am measuring a full B. I want a full C.

What Size I Should Go to Achieve a Full C?

First of all, it looks like you have a nice outcome with the chosen implant size. The implants are properly positioned behind the nipples/areolas. Like most surgeons, I dislike using cup size as an endpoint because it is not entirely predictable, and because there are no fixed definitions--I have many patients with bras fo 3 different cup sizes that all fit. I would recommend patience. As the implants settle they may well appear to be larger than they do now. The pectoral muscles... more

4 days out and implants are too small

The implants can be upsized and the highest profile used. I always get patients to try on a variety of implant sizes around my estimate, but implant size can be difficult to get just right. Talk with your surgeon.

In my opinion I would recommend UHP 400 cc implants to obtain a flu c/small D in your case. But over the internet this is only a guess. Best to you.

Implant size selection to acheive your goals

I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients: 1.Dimensional planning 2.Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. However, there are some... more

Implants and size

At this point in time, it is too early to tell what the final result will look like. As for changes in volume, you will have to wait several months to consider a revision.

Thank you very much Doctors. Everyone's answers have been very helpful I have to wait three months either way, so I will decide if they are still yoo small then

Thank you so much for your time and for your wonderful answer Doctor! I know, I really don't think I would like a high profile implant because it would look too fake for my taste. On the other hand, being as flat chested as I was growing up and now being 26, I almost feel as though I went from a flat chested kid to a teenager, if that makes any sense. I was hoping for them to fiil out even a sports bra more. Do you think if I wait around 3-4 months to go bigger and my skin stretches, that I have a chance at them looking natural? Do I have options, or is my best bet to stay with what I have?
